email

got an interesting email but due to format of the file, i unable to upload it.
anyway then i got an interesting conversation, decided to make another junk song again.
but this time i took abt 15min...

of cos lah... its shorter mah...


《百花开》
今日五姐有交待,
人品个性有点歹。
旁边提醒助我改,
希望将来有人要。

五行振动改人命,
希望迈做小小人。
助永风水改我命,
以后要做明德人。

“明白事理-公德人”
现在是 “明知会错,缺德人”

dividends

Busy these few days...
Long time no talk abt finances...

Anyway, there r 3 types of dividends
1) Less Tax
2) Exempt
3) One Tier


1) Less Tax dividend = dividends which have tax credits. meaning, IRAS will pay u back if there is no personal tax. But this system will end in YA 2007 which is this yr...

2) Exempt dividend are tax free dividends, as simple as that...

3) One Tier dividends are dividends that is already taxed but there will not have any tax credit

Eg:
Gross dividends: $100, Income $100

Less Tax: Paid $80 in yr 1, $20 in yr 2. Total 100
One Tier: $80 in yr 1, $0 in yr 2 Total 80
Exempted: Paid $100 in yr 1, $0 in yr 2. Total $100

now u know y i said Rich get richer, poor get poorer?

《杂念调》
七早八早学校去,
进了课室看先生,
不知先生写什么,
看来看去我就睡去。

先生一声休息时,
眼睛拔金人就醒,
toilet回来坐椅子,
手拿钢笔又睡去。

午饭回来已二点,
先生要教到六点,
看了手表人头痛,
为何时间未到点。

单手一出叫taxi,
德士也要将我欺,
等来等去等无伊,
手进口袋找手机。

为何口袋没手机,
早上出门没带伊,
meet人迟到心着急,
以后出门要小心 (sway d)......

wagon cab

i was going to client's place yesterday, decided to take a cab rather than my usual bus.
as i lift up my hand, i noted a weird looking cab stopping... its a VW

i was thinking if i m to board the cab as its more expensive. Then again... i forgot tat its under company account. Hack it lah. Board...

from my understanding, the cab was a 7 seater which they convert to a 5 seater with a large laggauge compartment. uncle saying tat sg only got 10 such cab.

wow... can tell u... the feeling is different from sitting in toyota.

so far i sit on Mez once. Its also different lor...

Friend gave him money to set business. In the end, TG set up fortune telling business. Pipa Spirit is caught by him. Emperor was pleased with him and asked him to supervise building a palace.

But TG rejected it and became a hermit. He sat by the steam with his famous fishing rod with no fishing hook... End of story

road bully

i wanted to blog abt customer service but changed mind after reading AC's blog.

after my usual window shopping, i was 'petrolling' in Bt Batok area before heading home.
a car honk was heard. It seems tat some1 had took his time to walk across the road thus e driver slowed down and honked him.
guess wat? the predestrian slapped on boots of the car. The driver was so angry that he stopped the car n confront the guy.

mins later, a bicycle was on e road, making way for another predestrian. the cyclist turned his head to wave at the lady, telling her to b careful.
as he turned back his head, a taxi braked in front of the bicycle to pick up passenger. the cyclist was shocked. luckily he reacted fast else he will kiss the boot of the taxi.

doesnt the ppl now have manners?

WWII surrender

today marks the surrender of e Japs in WWII.
the PM actually visited the Yasukuni shrine. I think he dont want to continue his terms already.

due to the deeds tat the Japs did during the 5 - 7 years, it had created damages to many ppl. u can imagine how the ppl during that time, use their own bodies to block the jap tanks from proceeding, the numbers of family tat were broken, the citizen who were captured for questioning.

Tat War created so much damaged in compared to WWI.

the Japs not only did not realise their mistakes but also change their textbooks n write them in favor of them.

thus e China n Koreans were so upset. Sigh...

China were very upset with the Rape of Nanking. Furthermore they had juz finished Xin Hai Ge Min in 1912. After which, there were internal war between KMT n Communist.
But damages had already been done. As such, today marks a day of celebration. Celebration of the End of the War!!!

Let's hope there will be no more War. er... Tat include Terrorism

Dont know if i spell the name of e restaurant right or not.
But juz to write down some things on the blog.

As u know, i very niao 1... tell u something. the first time i stepped into this restaurant was on my chinese birthday last yr.

my penpal, suddenly jio me out cos she got a fight with her x-bf. as i was free that day, i tot 'y not, c if i can open her mind'

i met her in e mrt station n we were discussing where to eat.
suddenly she asked 'u like waffles? i bring u go eat'
i missed A & W's waffle with ice cream thus we went to Galera.

i looked at the price. my eyes popped out... Wow $6 for a waffles n got no root beer!

anyway, we juz ordered a waffle each to eat. i added an ice cream. She liked hers plain.

massage

went for massage yesterday.
normally i will go for a session half yr once.

to me, massage got 3 level.
Level 1 - Foot reflexology cum back massage. i will go to those shops or my chinatown doc for back massage. i will only go to my doc if i got other illness also.

Level 2 - Ba Guan. This is the use of a cup and the cup will rub on the back. shiok!
My doc only used this on me twice. He said he could relax my muscles thus not necessary to use ba guan on me.

Level 3 - Zhen Jiu. Ya... Use needle. after the needle went onto the xue dao, the doc burns something on e needle. this is more painless than ba guan. Chinatown doc said i only need to use ba guan. no need to waste his needles. hahaa
so i went to boon keng doctor.

xj: i really got a doc in boon keng.

miko's house

we had a meeting at miko's place.
by right, meeting is to start at 1pm.
in the end, may had not finished making her loved wantan for us. richard is busy doing some music but there was sound of 'dry swimming' in background.
me, being the most on time person, got there around 1.30pm.

miko n i ended up watching mdt for abt an hour or so before we went downstair to play with horsewhip. i brought Jun Ma along.

Guess wat? YP's horse is there also! it looked thin. hahahaa
MK said that YP's horse is not fed.
Coincidentally, my whip n hers are of e same color...

While resting during our play, auntie n i had a silly conversation

Me: My whip is female 1, YP's is male. Cos YP's looks longer than mine. (her whip is a bit dented)

Auntie: No, YP's is female, urs is male. Cos YP's whip is more soft thus dented
